UJ-850 DVD/CD Drive

[colinmil]

Lately I have been getting errors when burning CDs so I got a new UJ-850 to replace the UJ-850 in my Z61P.  It arrived today and when I went to install it I found that it had a different connector in the back of it.  Does Lenovo put a different connector on the back of their UJ-850?  When I ordered it I did not see different versions available of this model burner. 

What should I look for when getting another CD drive?

Thanks

Hi Colin,

Z61p takes Ultrabay Slim. I'd suggest to look for service part number (FRU):- http://support.lenovo.com/en_US/product-and-parts/detail.page?DocID=PD003158#13

Hope this helps.

Thanks.  I guess I will have to get one that has a Lenovo sticker on it to be sure it has the correct interface.
